3 Bedroom Garden Villa with Private Pool at Bang Por Ko Samui

This gem of a villa for six is situated in a small, private estate on the tranquil north coast of Ko Samui.  It offers a choice of pools - your own 10 meter pool + Jacuzzi at the heart of the private walled garden, and a minute's walk away is the estate's communal 15 meter beachfront pool!    The neighbouring twin villa can be linked for larger groups.

This delightful holiday property combines Western comfort and Asian styling throughout, using thick bamboo framed sofas, chairs and beds, and a European kitchen with the usual appliances and accessories. The three bedroom suites are air conditioned and have ceiling fans, while fans and large patio doors keep it cool in the living room on the upper level of this two storey residence. Here there are comfortable sofas and chairs, and a widescreen slim TV/DVD screen for viewing the satellite channels provided or a film, and a stereo system for music. Complimentary Wi-Fi Internet access is provided for guests.

Built over two stories, the villa's three bedroom suites and the dining room and kitchen are on the ground floor, which is just a few steps higher than the tropical garden. The dining room offers great views of the private pool, and has a large Chinese teak wood dining table able to seat eight people. The large patio doors of the dining room can be fully opened to the outside pool terrace, enhancing the cooling effect of the ceiling fan. The fully equipped Western-style kitchen has all the usual appliances, including a coffee maker, and sufficient cooking, serving and eating dishes for simple meals or more intricate cuisine. A hall from the dining room leads to the three double bedroom suites. There is a guest washroom off the hallway.

All three of the spacious bedroom suites have full air conditioning, and their furnishings follow the villa's style of Asian chic, using bamboo and neutral, natural materials. The luxury master bedroom has a king size bed set on a raised plinth, and large patio doors open out onto the swimming pool deck. The en suite has twin hand basins, a shower, and a dressing area. It also features a Balinese-style outside bathroom, which has its own bath and shower. The second bedroom suite has a raised king size bed as well, and an en suite shower. The third bedroom, similarly furnished, has twin beds set on a raised platform.

A wide stairway from the dining room leads up to the villa's second level. This living room has very comfortable bamboo sofas from which to watch the television, or from which to enjoy the music from the stereo system. There is a bar area stocked with a variety of glasses, and also a bar fridge to keep your sodas, fruit juices and other drinks cool. The balcony off the living room overlooks the pool and terrace and is accessed through patio doors. Walking along the balcony you reach the Sala, a great place to enjoy an early evening cocktail!

The villa's central pool is 1.2 meters deep and 10 meters long, with a Jacuzzi and a bar, where four under-water barstools invite you to sit sub-aqua. On the poolside terrace are sun loungers for relaxing, and a dining table and chairs for enjoying those all important al fresco meals!

The villa is a step back from the white sands of Bang Por beach, reached by a short stroll along garden paths to the communal pool shared by the small estate. The long beach provides numerous restaurants for beachside dining, and some stunning sunset views - not to be missed! Here in the unspoilt northern part of Ko Samui, Bang Por beach is quiet, fringed with coconut palms, and offers safe swimming and good snorkelling. Your peaceful villa is however just a short drive from shops, bars, restaurants and night time fun, should you want it: Bophut's Fisherman's Village is 15 minutes away, and offers interesting shops, bars and restaurants, as well as water sports such as jet-skiing, or go-karting for the landlubbers. Chaweng, a popular tourist destination, is about a 30 minute drive. The Santiburi Golf and Country Club is 15 minutes away, and Nathon, a ferry port, also takes 15 minutes to reach.
